Today, we cleaned up the posts and reports for this community. When I was handed the reigns, there were ~70 unresolved reports. There are now 0.

I don't want another community to moderate, but if I must take one on, this is a great one. With that being said, if you want to help out, reply to this post, and after reviewing your history, you might become a ~~wizard~~ moderator.

Was going to wait, but I decided.

I'll see myself out after making them mods

I'll leave this post up, so others can volunteer. It'll be up to them to manage that going forward.

You two rock!

I would be willing to help out. I am on Lemmy pretty much every day.

[-] JonsJava@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Pretty solid history! I've asked other mods to weigh in, but you're definitely on the short list. Once I have found new mods, I'll be dipping. I just wanted to help clean it up until we could find people who would take over.

I don’t mind pitching in, assuming Dolphin does a halfass good job of notifying about mods tasks pending.

Usually active in PDT.

And apparently I need to create a .world account to be able to see reports AND I have to post here to be able to sign this alt as a mod. Tedious but ok. Here I am.

Testing again to get mod promotion to federate…

[-] JonsJava@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

3 years and 0 mod actions. Also read through you post history. Amazingly positive person. You would be perfect for top mod. I'll give others a chance to respond, so don't expect anything just yet.

Thank you! But I prefer to think of myself as a terrible person.

[-] Patnou@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I'm game. apparently I was a mod before and did nothing. Which until today did not know I was a mod of. Kind of like just a couple days ago I got a message saying I was mod of dataisbeautiful and had unanswered reports.

[-] Patnou@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Oh yea forgot about that. That's because I got a new computer and never knew you could export or import all bookmarks/passwords/ and other things.

[-] Patnou@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Yeah but are you going to give the taco back?

[-] paranoid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I'm happy to help out if I am deemed worthy

[-] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

Lemme know if you still need help.

Id be willing to help

[-] Patnou@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

If you want I'll give it a shot I run !askhistorians@lemmy.world just for a reference.

[-] JonsJava@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I'm no longer a mod here, but you were a mod here. I removed you along with the others, due to lack of moderation.

[-] Patnou@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

lol holy crap I was? I didn't know that, it wasn't until a few days ago I am a mod at dataisbeautiful. I can try to give it a shot.

[-] JonsJava@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

That's up to the mods here, not me. I jumped in to clean it up (nazi postings were rampant), then find volunteers to take over.

I was top mod for less than an hour before I found suitable replacements.

full transparency - I advised them you might not be a good fit, as you didn't moderate when you were a mod of this community.

[-] Patnou@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago

I like you mate but calling a little BS. People don't do nazi crap anymore. At least I have never seen it in lemmy.world. And if you did see it you should have messaged me because I love to hate nazi's and the like. I like the whole...i'll quit there before I get on a soap box.

[-] JonsJava@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago

The mod logs are right there.

https://a.lemmy.world/lemmy.world/u/Morganalefay@fedinsfw.app was the person doing it. There were 70 reports in mod queue.

The fact you don't know that but are calling it BS is amazingly telling.

I meant it tongue in cheek. Nazi crap is (in my opinion) a banable offense. I have the desktop wall paper of Captain America pointing at me with the words written below : I Want You To Punch Nazi's. Punch Every God Damn One.
